The October WASDE found more US wheat and more world wheat, with US carryover at 1.043 billion bushels versus 1.015 billion expected. World stocks were estimated at 287.8 million tonnes, above the pre-report 285.17 million, and Australian weather shows limited rain for the wheat belt.
Bigger-than-expected stocks point to ample wheat supplies and softer prices, while Australian dryness could limit upside losses by threatening yield. Feed buyers may see wheat stay competitively priced as a feed grain.
